About this property

Just steps off iconic South Congress and the sought after Saint Cecilia hotel, this picturesque 1920s storybook cottage has undergone a magnificent transformation throughout the years. The SOCO JEWEL BOX sits upon one of the most gorgeous corner lots in Travis Heights, just over a 1/4 acre (11, 935 SF). Lovingly restored, the home maintains its very distinctive historic impression from the early 1900s. The current two-bedroom, two-bath home feels amazingly spacious, welcoming, and has an airy atmosphere with its high ceilings, graciously proportioned living spaces, lots of light and exceptional outdoor decking both front and back. The attention to detail extends to the detached guest house, which features a full bath and perfectly complements the home’s design, offering a serene space for work or play. Expansion plans are available for the existing home, if desired. The lot can accommodate a 4000+ SF home with potential downtown Austin views from a second-story level. Outside, the manicured lawn surrounding the property exudes a sense of elegance and tranquility, inviting you to spend leisurely afternoons on your front or back porch. Located in the heart of SoCo, this home is within walking distance of restaurants, shopping, entertainment, Lady Bird Lake and everything downtown Austin has to offer.
